NGC is delighted to welcome veteran numismatist Rick
Montgomery!

As a Senior Vice President and partner in the firm,
Montgomery will be responsible for grading and authentication,
two areas in which he enjoys a stellar reputation.

Montgomery joined NGC on Dec. 16, 2002. A numismatist
of his caliber is rare, and he will be a major asset
to NGC. The company is confident that his participation
will only further solidify its position as the market
leader in certified authentication and grading.

NGC Chairman and CEO Mark Salzberg is very pleased that
Montgomery elected to join the company. "I've known
and respected Rick for years," Salzberg stated. "He
brings a wealth of talent in numismatics. NGC has aggressively
pursued the leadership role that it currently enjoys,
and Rick's involvement with NGC can only strengthen
our organization in the eyes of the rare coin industry."

Montgomery has been a key figure in professional numismatics
for many years. Most recently, he was employed by PCGS
as its president.

Montgomery is also quite satisfied with his move: "I'm
extremely excited about joining the many experts that
make NGC the great company it is. NGC has defined itself
as the recognized standard in numismatic certification
for collectors and dealers, and I look forward to contributing
to that continued success. With its talented core of
experts in grading and numismatic attributions, I'm
anxious to add to this dynamic force within the industry."
